Why wouldn't America accept him as their next action hero?

Why wouldn't America accept him as their next action hero?

He was just as famous and beloved as The Rock but failed to cross over.

Vince convinced him to make movies under the WWE studio while the Rock branched out to real studios connected to Hollywood.

BEAT


DEBRA

>while the Rock branched out to real studios connected to Hollywood
not to mention the Rock never stopped making movies
there was like 10 years between Scorpion King and Fast Five
Stone Cold didn't have that type of energy

You're saying Vince McMahon (who just retired today) is responsible for leaving his movie career stone cold dead?

Steve Austin wasn't very attractive plus his entire gimmick was basically being a brainless redneck which doesn't really equate to big bucks in the theaters

True, The Rock was kind of a failed movie star at one point. He just kept plugging away and got to where he needed to go.

Respect.

WHAT?

Steve didn't care for Hollywood. Once said he smelt bullshit there and was able to smell bullshit from a mile away.
>aka was asked to do gay stuff and balked.

>didn't start making movies until wrestling as a whole was practically a dead industry
>even then only appeared in Direct-to-video movies or WWE studio dogshit
Seems like it just didn't want to pursue it

he should've pushed for a cable how

>The Rock was kind of a failed movie star at one point
u remember the movie he did with Dexter's sister?

He probably would have been great in Walking Tall

>coping for having no charisma outside of the ring

Faster. That was good. Nothing to write home about but a decent way to kill some time. Also Walking Tall and some other early stuff. Those movies didn't launch him into the spotlight really but his early movies are all good.

He probably just did a few movies for fun. His body is all banged up, why would he want to be a big action star? He's rich as fuck living a comfy life on a ranch.
The dude has plenty of charisma, I could listen to him talk for hours.

>no charisma outside the ring
>Meanwhile, the Rock plays the exact same character in several different movies for the last 20 years despite having charisma.

You sound like you're his cocksleeve.

Always got him confused with Goldberg.

i liked the condemned

You sound like you wish you were.

The Rock was more than willing to go to the 'casting couch' - hence the Hollywood career. Does "Stone Cold" Steve Austin come off like a guy who'd be into sucking old, fat jew cock for a fucking movie role?

There have been rumours of Steve's sexuality for years; not just the envy of others dick size cause him to go in to a rage, but he also joked once how he got his scrub brush stuck up his ass in the shower once.

Steph must have pegged him.
